Your Highness, Jiangshan hires you

The next day, the imperial palace, Zhaohua Palace.

"Mother and Concubine, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep Qin Hong this time. Damn, this Qin Hong is a general who leads one side after all. It doesn't matter if he doesn't clean his buttocks. Even if it's the secret history of the father who went to the southern border to investigate, as long as those witnesses Without entering the imperial capital, there is still room for maneuver in everything, and it is useless for those few people to pass the southern border alive."

Concubine Liu Gui looked at her angry son in front of her, and said in a deep voice: "Cheng'er, your father's secret envoy has gone to the southern border, and those witnesses have also entered the Ministry of Criminal Justice. I will submit the memorial to the emperor. Qin Hong's affairs cannot be settled. Your uncle is on tour in the northern border, and he will not be able to return to Beijing in time. The most important thing is to polish the right person to sit in Qin Hong's position."

"What the mother and concubine said is very true. The old man Qi Sheng belongs to the prince, and the prime minister is behind the accusation. What Qin Hong committed is unforgivable. "Xiao Cheng frowned, "It's just that the crown prince has always wanted to insert people into the army, and this time they have such an opportunity, they will definitely not let it go, and we must not let them succeed."

"Speaking of this matter, there were some bad rumors in the southern border, but Qin Hong immediately took countermeasures. Although we and the prince's people have been keeping a close eye on each other, regarding the witnesses, Cheng'er secretly sent someone to intercept and kill him, why did he miss, there is a big problem with this matter."

Xiao Cheng thought, "What the concubine mother said is indeed strange, the prince's people took action in this matter, but in terms of the force of the people under him, how can the prince's people be compared with ours, the killers that can be sent out, No one came back, but the witnesses were successfully escorted into the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, the mother concubine thinks that the crown prince is secretly looking for an expert?"

"No one can guarantee the greatness of the dynasty. How many hidden masters there are in this world. This time it was exposed. We have to be more cautious in the future. At that time, when your uncle returns to Beijing, he has to think carefully."

"Mother, the matter at hand..."

"The matter in the southern border has become a big deal. Your uncle has handed over the booklet and returned to Beijing to plead guilty to the emperor. Regarding the rectification of the southern border, what your uncle means is that you should be as obedient as possible and not have any partiality."

"In this way, Qin Hong's arm will be completely broken. Mother, concubine, uncle, is there a suitable candidate?"

"Your uncle has been in charge of the army for many years. Even if the prince can select good people, he must not surpass the one recommended by your uncle. At this point in the matter, we can't rush it."

"Yes, Erchen understands."

……

Royal study.

Xiao Mingyuan closed the memorial handed over by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, threw it on the Long Case, and said with a sneer: "The Ministry of Criminal Justice is quite fast, and it hasn't been half a day since the witnesses entered the Ministry of Criminal Justice, they have already written the memorial of Qin Hong in the southern border Extremely detailed."

Eunuch Sun waited on him carefully, and said: "The courtiers are all worthy of the emperor, so they must serve the emperor."

"Heh." Xiao Mingyuan chuckled lightly, "Is there any movement on the second side?"

"No." Eunuch Sun replied truthfully, "The news of the incident in the southern border leaked out before, and the Second Highness tried to suppress it. The second highness tried to intercept those people who escaped from the southern border, but failed. After leaving the imperial capital and entering the Ministry of Punishment, there was no movement from His Highness the Second Highness."

"Tell me, who is better between the masters under the crown prince and the masters under the old second hand?"

Eunuch Sun didn't think about what the emperor said suddenly, but every word he said was carefully thought out, "The Second Highness has the support of the Grand Marshal, so it should be the Second Highness who has the upper hand in this regard."

"Have you ever thought about it, why did the second child still ask the prince to send those witnesses to the Ministry of Punishment?"

"This... Could it be that His Royal Highness has secretly cultivated stronger masters?"

"Is there any, do you think the intelligence on the dark web will not be collected?"

Eunuch Sun lowered his head and said repeatedly: "It's my slave's negligence."

"Get rid of the people sent by the second child to kill, let the prince's people bring the witnesses back to the imperial capital, and even avoid the surveillance of the dark net. Who do you think can do it?"

As soon as these words came out, Eunuch Sun was stunned. He thought of something, but he didn't dare to say more, "The slave is incompetent, I couldn't think of it."

"That's it."

Coincidentally, an eunuch came in from outside, holding a newly delivered memorial. Eunuch Sun went over immediately, took it and presented it to the emperor, "Your majesty, this is the grand marshal's greeting note."

Xiao Mingyuan held it in his hand, it turned out that it was Liu Shuo who cut off Qin Hong. According to the time of this scripture, it seems that after the second child's interception failed and Liu Shuo got the news, it was confirmed.

"The secret history sent to the southern border, how is the investigation progress in the southern border?"

"Returning to the emperor, the people sent to the southern border will be immediately suspended from Qin Hong, from top to bottom, and all those close to them will be suspended for investigation. The testimonies are almost the same.”

"Since this is the case, let the Ministry of Punishment proceed comprehensively, interrogate Qin Hong and his subordinates involved in the case, and punish them according to the law."

"Yes." Eunuch Sun responded, and immediately went to convey the emperor's will.

Xiao Mingyuan's eyes fell on the memorials piled up on the dragon case, and he thought to himself: Let the old second-hand killer return without success, the interception failed, and even my dark net can't find any traces, Ming Che, except you, I I really can't think of anyone else who can do it. How much did you intervene in this matter? Do you want the outbreak of the southern border incident to accelerate the intensification of the battle between the crown prince and the second child?

……

Prince's Mansion.

Minister of Criminal Justice Qi Sheng bowed towards the person sitting at the front of the case, "Your Highness, Eunuch Sun, who is next to the emperor, just delivered an order to order the officials to fully interrogate Qin Hong and all the people involved in the case, and deal with them according to the law. "

Xiao Luan looked at Zhang Xiu who was sitting on the side, and said with a smile: "Uncle, Qin Hong, they can't keep it. A general who is in charge of the army in the southern border will be vacant soon. Uncle, we have to hurry up." .”

Zhang Xiu responded, but he was still a bit contemplative in his heart, "Let the Ministry of Punishment watch over this matter, and follow the emperor's orders. As for the candidate to replace Qin Hong, he must be biologically attractive, but before that, about We have to carefully consider the matter of our people escorting the witnesses who escaped from the southern border to the imperial capital."

Of course Xiao Luan understood this, "Uncle is worried, because Xiao Cheng's subordinates should have successfully intercepted and killed, but someone suddenly appeared to help us, so that we successfully brought the witness back to the imperial capital? "

"Xiao Cheng has Liu Shuo's support, and he has far more masters than us. It is rare to hear of strong men who can surpass them. This time, it is not easy, and we have to guard against it."

"Uncle's worry is not unreasonable, but we and Xiao Cheng's family have long been in the same situation. It is in our interest to remove Qin Hong's arm. In the future, we should be more careful in our actions, and there will be no trouble with uncle planning behind the scenes. hinder."

Zhang Xiu pondered, and agreed, "I hope so."

It's just that they didn't find out who made the move, and there was always a pimple in their hearts, but I have to say that this matter in front of them is indeed beneficial to them, they should deal with this matter first, and then act carefully, it should be fine.
